Don't worry guys, I will never get another cat. But given the fact that these two (who were both strays that were found) are only 5 and 11, I should still have another 10 long years of cat ownership ahead of me. Its funny, as I was typing my last 2 messages I had a cat laying on me purring. Sometimes I may get a little overdramatic in my posts. I do love my kitties, and though they would make nice soft gloves, I could never put them down. They just need to stop peeing on things! I may try kidney care or kindney cleanse by Azmira (I can't remember what the product is actually called). Maybe that will help. There's a possibility that my fat cat has diabetes. I really should have her tested. She's probably at 17lbs right now. She doesn't clean herself. Since she is long haired I shave her. I bought an Oster A5 Turbo clipper just for use on this cat. I am 90% sure that she is the one peeing on things.

Hey everyone
Well, I all snug as a bug in a rug at the sleep center !!! I was wondering the same thing TO.... But looks like there are other establishments in the building as well...... Had to ring a bell to get in.... Then walked past a room where the husband was just getting kicked out by his wife... I said Oh spouses can come too !!! LOL

Or maybe we're doubling up in the rooms? lol

Real nice woman a few years older then myself (she mentioned it) so felt a bit better about putting on my PJ's !!!

She'll be in here shortly to hook up the wires to my head. Said we'll shoot for a 10:30pm bedtime for me !! lol Still early but I took my antihistamine.... I've been off ambien for 6 days now. Feel a little bit less drowsy in the mornings but nothing to write home about.

I was just leaving Antigo when the big storm hit.I suppose I should have turned the radio on.... my sister, bil and niece were on their way up at the exact same time. I think I must have passed them in Antigo. Glad they made it through the storm.

Doesn't sound like they are going to put the Cpap on unless I have more then 5 incidences or whateve they are.

She just popped her head in and said I look comfy !!! Yep, this is the position I spend probably half my day in... propped up with pillows on the bed with my laptop !!! LOL
So I just had to ask her what the scoop was with the bank... she said there are lot of other business's in here, dermatologist, church and others. So the bank may be just another renter from another corp ????

Anyway, Jim to clarify what side of the street are you on and what way does your back door face????? I'm still trying to picture all of this. That is the back door in the picture right?

Good news, My 4 baby geese are still around and getting big...only regret is that they are mutt gooslings. One of the mothers (there are two mothers) is part seb, the other mother is a cross of two dark colored geese and daddy is a white Chinese.
I have a female white Chinese but he is in with my sebs and the daddy to the dark mama where these babies are......
Of course my sebs sat on eggs but nothing hatched !!! DANG !!

Oh and ET said there were four baby ducks walking around today.... When I left I walked down to the pen and only saw the four gooslings and three ducklings. So he goes and sticks his head into the coop with the Muscovey mama hissing at him from inside. He at first said he saw the other baby then pulls one out. It was still wet, just hatched then saw two other older ones. So that makes 6 confirmed ducklings. Should all be muscovies unless my snowy call male got after the muscovies !!! LOL

Ok, she's back, I'm getting wired !!! bbl

Terri O- I was thinking the same thing when he started sprouting feather's from his legs. Very pretty roo none the less. I was told the blues could be orps but who knows ill have to ask the lady we purchased from again to clarify.
Daughter bought 10 Buff Orp x Speckled Sussex chicks today and 2 Lemon Cuckoo's, should be interesting addition.
My friend has been having a bad year with her incubator so I offered to bring it to my house and give it a try. So far its showing a 5 deg. Dif and 7% dif from my digital thermometer. Could make a world of difference being that much off. Its a Farm Innovators brand which I know nothing about. Can't hurt to try, she's only gotten 2 chicks out of 5 batches with 2 incubators running.

CS, I have taken storm spotter training classes for years, and I have taken a meteorology course. On top of that my next door neighbor is a storm spotter for the county, complete with mobile ham radio and flashing lights for his vehicle. We were just fine, watching the radar and keeping tabs of where the storm was headed. We got a little bit wet but stayed clear of the main part of the cell and came out the other side in a perfect spot to look for rotation. I say the perfect spot because the fire trucks and police were there too! All in all a beautiful storm!
BTW if you ever want to have company going to TOC I will GLADLY join you!

BBP seriously get the pheromone diffusers I was telling you about. They really do work.

Back to work tomorrow. Maybe I will actually get up early and go for a bike ride.....

The college that I graduated from actually offered storm chasing courses, so I knew a few other people that enjoyed this same crazy endorphin rush. We wouldn't have the news updates and reporting during the storms without those of you crazy enough to go out there however!

 

[babylady4]

I cannot help myself....... I find it fascinating!!!!! I have always loved a good storm.....

 

[chikenscratch]

I do too, but I'd be too scared.

My Cornish rocks and red rangers are supposed to be butchered tomorrow. I gave the red rangers all a good feel up. They are not ready! I realize they don't fill out like the cornish, but they have no breasts at all. I think they are 10 weeks, I'll give them another 3. Even though I am sick of my huge feed bill. The Cornish are 8 week pullets and a couple of them have to be close to 10 lbs. I bet the rangers are like 4.
